Embed Vidoe/Inline Video

Embeded Video (Inline Video)

Here is a set of links to web pages showing how to embed video images in the browser as opposed to pop up the media player or real player application. Some called the embeded video inline video. There is also a set of links to the actual video files that will display the video on a separate window. Note that some of the video files are big and take some time to download.

The original video is captured with a Sony Digital camera in MPEG format with 3.322MB. We then use Real Producer Basic 10 to compress the MPEG video into real movie format. On version we consider the audience who has slower link such as 56kpbs, Direction2EAS56k.rm (88KB). The other we consider the audience who has high speed DSL link (622KB).

If you do not have real player installed before, your browser will pop up a window and ask you to select the player applications from a list or from Internet.

You can download the real player from http://forms.real.com/netzip/arcade.html?h=software-dl.real.com&r=02e817bc77e7bc63e219&f=windows/RealPlayer10-5GOLD_bb.exe.The current version is version 10. The basic version is free.

If you prefer Media Player for playing the audio or video file formats such as .wav, .mp3, .mpg, then during the installation of real player basic version 10, do not select it as a default player to play those file formats. Uncheck all those selections. Real player will still register to the IE browser to play back the .rm file format as default.

Embeded Video Using Applet Tag

Here is a simple example for using Java SimplePlayerApplet to play a movie.
<html>
<body>
This is a test of SimplePlayer Applet.
<hr>
<applet code="SimplePlayerApplet.class" width=320 height=300>
<param name=file value="orion_1.mpeg">
</applet>
</body>
</html>
Here is the link to play movie orion_1.mpeg.
The SimplePlayerApplet is created using Java Media Framework. Here is the cs525 exercise that compiles the SimplePlayerApplet.
